"JStreetU," a branch of the controversial J Street lobby that focuses on activity inside university campuses, has announced it is beginning operations in Jerusalem. Israeli Ambassador to the United States Michael Oren has broadly hinted that J Street endangers Israel's existence. In an email message, Drew and Kelly Cohen of Jerusalem announced that JStreetU recently hired them to put together educational programs reflective of JStreetU's mission for students studying abroad in Israel, both on the undergraduate and graduate level including rabbinic programs, education programs, or the myriad other Israel experiences (and especially Pardes)...
We're very excited about the launch of this program, the Cohens said, and the potential to impact the way American Jews use their time while in Israel, as well as to empower them upon their return to the US (
). Thank you in advance for your participation and support, Drew & Kelly Cohen JStreetU Jerusalem Organizers 17 General Pierre Koenig, Apt 3 Jerusalem, Israel Cell: 054-979-5471.
